Yes, I think you’re right. Graham does know procedure.

Lol. Pandora’s box is open on this impeachment trial unless they change the rules to end debate with 51 votes instead of 60 this trial is now set to last 3.5 years.

They are now saying that Trump’s lawyer perjured himself by saying this.

They are a vile, nasty bunch. Van der Deen was visibly disgusted by them.

Pence’s aide is last named Short. If you remember, right after Jan. 6 (maybe the 7th) Trump banned him from the White House.

Trumps tweets, during the capitol protest, distinctly said “No Violence” - I do remember that. So, no matter the conversation with Mccarthy - PDJT did what he could at the time to quell it. This is so widely known, and nullifies any stupid phone argument.

Oh, I know that. But this whole thing is about making it look like they were and he controlled them. And I’m sure the Dems had this strategy up their sleeves since the beginning of the fake trial.

The democrats probably think they cannot lose with this trial. They will have accomplished what is near and dear to them, which is to demonize Trump 24/7. And after he is acquitted, they can demonize him for many more 24/7s for being acquitted by corrupt Republicans. Of course, by democrats, I am referring to the networks.

“There may be a rule calling for a vote to call each witness, one at a time”

The very definition of a show trial. Selected witnesses, telling one side of the story.

“Did they vote for witnesses on BOTH sides?”

Not really. Cruz just said that they could say OK for RAT witnesses, but zero for PDJT’s side. It could happen.

Rob Schmitt on Newsmax brought up the guard offer and one of the guests shot him down. He was right, the Sgt at Arms admitted the guard was turned down because of optics.

hopefully the votes and witnesses go on until at least summer. Keep the senate in their chairs and unable to enact pelosi/biden wish lists

That’s right. It is less about what Trump did or did not do after McCarty’s call. The dems are using this to say even Trump’s own party thought he was behind it.

That is what I thot I heard...

Thank you for differentiating between fact and opinion.

That said, I don’t know how it can be justified that our President cannot have witnesses if he so desires...

There’s still time for God to cast out the demons in that room.
